People like you are why the movie industry is trash, might as well stay away from it and go find something better to do

The last 10 minutes are great and had me laughing. But not sure the first 2 hours are worth it.

Just got out and loved it. It is a tad long but that's to be expected with QT. I can see why some might find it boring but I was never once bored and that ending was fantastic

Just got out. Did not hate it. May have had a bit to drink and said “hey, it’s robin from stranger things” when they were in the car

I was worried when I’d been sitting for a long time and Sharon wasn’t pregnant yet...

It’s long but I could watch DiCaprio and Pitt act their way through 60’s Hollywood all night. Loved the radio segues and movie and TV promotions. Great music.

It’s pure Tarantino. Anyone hoping for anything different will be disappointed.

Amazing Tarantino ending.

And frick you to the spoilers who read up on the twist and then posted their “guesses” in here.

Were there long periods of bullshite dialogue? Tarantino seems to have lost his timing and nuance when it comes to shite like that.

I thought it was great. I’m not a crazy QT fan but I’m fascinated with the Manson story.
Also, the beginning of the antihero in cinema and weaving that into Ricks roles and actual life was really clever.
LD was great. The little hippy girl was very good. MR was a perfect Tate.
Loved it.

Just ordered the soundtrack. It includes some of the radio intros and commercials, as well as the Adam West and Burt Ward radio contest spot from the credits. :)

I just got out....I have never had to piss more than I did for the last 20 minutes.

Was there any post credit shite? Because as soon as it said "Quentin Tarantino film" I got the frick out.

I anticipated a IB type reimagining of history so the ending wasn't a big surprise

What the frick was the first 80% of the movie really for?

I legit fell asleep...

Was the cute blonde brutally murdered? Or is it even worth illegally streaming the last 30 minutes or so?

Seems like it was a movie hyped around Charles Manson murders which featured none of that. Brad Pitt will win an academy award for best supporting actor. Without him this movie goes nowhere.

Better than midsommar I guess?

I’m sorry to the movie peeps, but I fell asleep. It was way past my bed time. Now I am pissed off I didn’t get to see the ending/resolution. I got woken up during the credits.

Absolutely loved it. Not a fan of the first act but it picked up in the second and the finish was, well, you know.


It's also Leo and Pitt's very best in a very long time.

***SPOILERS***

Some of the small bits that made the movie so much better for me...

The Rick Dalton Mad Magazine cover in the style of Mort Drucker, the Rick Dalton TV Guide cover in the style of Jack Davis.

Inserting Rick Dalton into the FBI, and putting him in that Great Escape scene just for the frick of it.

Nicholas (Spider-Man) Hammond as Sam Wanamaker, directing that episode of Lancer and going full Tarantino in the role. (If you go to Wanamaker's episode of Lancer on IMDB, you can see how close Tarantino got to the actual actors and costumes. DiCaprio's look seems to be based a little bit on Joe Don Baker's Character in that episode.
